Hi there!
Im trying to export a vm from proxmox in to esxi and have done it as following.

find / | grep vm-101-disk-*
qemu-img convert -f raw /dev/zvol/datastore/vm-101-disk-0 -O vmdk MYNEWNAME.vmdk

After this i moved the file to esxi 7.0.3 host and ran
vmkfstools -i MYNEWNAME.vmdk TOTALLYNEWNAME.vmdk -d thin

But when adding "New existing disk" to the new vm i created it gives me error when saving.
If i expand the disk settings i see that the options shares,Limit-IOPs ,Controller location and Disk mode is empty.

Does anyone have the same issue or have a solution for it?

**SOLVED IT, If u do it direct from host it does not work since i have vcenter. When doing it from there it worked fine!

Regards
